Information We Collect About You
Information We Collect Directly From You.
You may browse certain areas of the Site and a subset of our services without registering with us or providing us personal information. We may collect personal information that you provide to us in connection with your use of the Services when you: (a) register as a user of the Services; (b) make changes to your user profile information; (c) send email messages, forms, or other information through the Services; (d) download the applications; (e) interact with the Services. If you register for a YBVR account, you will be required to provide your first and last name and email address and will be prompted to create a password. You may also choose to provide additional information in connection with your YBVR account.
Information We Collect Automatically.
YBVR may automatically collect the following information about your use of our Site or Services through cookies and other technologies, technical information about your device(s), browser type and version, computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Services, ad data, Wi-Fi connection information, IP address, device ID, and standard web log information. We use IP address to track the geographical location of the user to determine if certain content is available to be accessed in that geographical location (if content is not available we typically send a message to the user indicating content is not available). We also collect click actions within the applications for error reporting and tracking user behavior. We also collect data regarding how long users watch a specific piece of content, what content users are watching, how many pieces of content a user is watching, from where the users are accessing our content, as well as telemetry regarding the technical performance of the services. We may combine this information with other information that we have collected about you, including, where applicable, your username, name, and other personal information, including but not limited to username and password used for third party authentication within the YBVR platform. Please see the section “Cookies and Web Beacons” below for more information.
Cookies and Web Beacons
YBVR, along with our third-party service providers, vendors and business partners may use cookies, locally stored objects, pixel tags, and web beacons to automatically collect information about your use of the Services. Cookies are small bits of information that are transferred to and stored in separate files within your computer’s browser. The Services use both “persistent cookies” which remain on your computer after you have closed your browser as well as “session cookies” which exist only during a visitor’s online session and disappear from your computer when you close your browser. Locally stored objects or “flash cookies” are data files that can be created on your computer by the websites you visit and are a way for websites to store information for later use. Locally stored objects are different than cookies because they are stored in different parts of your computer than cookies. Web beacons are small strings of code that provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a web page or in an email message for the purpose of transferring data. You can set your browser to reject or disable cookies or to notify you when you are sent a cookie. However, if you reject or disable cookies, you may not be able to use all portions or all functionality of the Services.
Third Party Analytics
We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate usage of our Site and our Services. We also may use other analytic means to evaluate our Services. We use these tools to help us improve our Services, performance and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform their services. We do not share your personal information with these third parties (We need to make sure this is still accurate) .
User Generated Content
We may invite you to post content on or through public areas of our Site or Services, including your comments, photos, videos, pictures, and any other information that you would like to be available on our Site or Services. Please note, however, that if you post such content to public areas of our Site or Services, all of the information or content that you post may be available to other visitors or users of our Site or Services. Your posting and content may become public and we cannot prevent such information from being used in a manner that may violate this Privacy Policy, the law, or your personal privacy.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
Email: legal@ybvr.com
Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
Response Timing and Format
YBVR aims to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Non-discrimination
YBVR will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.
No Use by Children
The Services are not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We will never knowingly collect information directly from children under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent. If you are under the age of 13, you may not use the Services and please do not provide us with information of any kind whatsoever. If we become aware that a user is under the age of 13 and has submitted information to the Services without verifiable parental consent, we will remove his or her information from our files and deactivate his or her account. We encourage parents and guardians to spend time with their children online and to be familiar with the websites they visit. If you have reason to believe that we may have accidentally received personal information from a child under the age of 13, please contact us immediately at info@ybvr.com.
Retention of Your Information
